Sorry about forgetting to post the weekend thread again, it’ll take a while to get into the habit of posting it. I mentioned yesterday that we’ve installed a plug-in to facilitate embedding within the comments. I’ll play around with that this morning and try to get it functional.
We had a great night fishing last night, kiddo blew us all out of the water & caught four walleye in the short time we were out there. Good times were had by all. We’re gonna pack up shortly & head out to the lake and spend the rest of the weekend camping. Y’all have a great weekend.
Over at Vikings.com, check out highlights from yesterday’s OTA #9.
A great day in the MLB yesterday! The Twins curbstomped the Blue Jays, and the Braves topped the Rockies, links courtesy of FoxSports.
That’s all there is, folks. Have at it in the comments, and most of all, be cool to one another.
Was actually going to watch a little NBA. ESPN wants a subscription, ESPN+ i guess, LMAO.
Oh yeah, FJB.
It’s frustrating, the cap was created to make more teams competitive. Now position players are making it inordinate. Qb money is bs, now wr, back where we started.
Teams gotta find that right mix of top tier talent and rookie contracts.
Balancing act for sure.
Rams built a semi super teamโฆ who knows the sustainability though.
Hey 5, your buddy Kane ain’t playing tomorrow.
saw that, good
Twinks out about 18 players, take 2 of 3 from Jays, who woulda thunk.
Twins and Braves are both rollinโ.
Braves spanking the Rockies at the moment.
bRad, try this sometime.

Holy shit
Smoking baby back ribs and watching Hockey. A nice afternoon.
Nice. Last i looked for ribs they didn’t appear all that good and cost $$$$.
โSystem quarterbackโ is one of the last phrases that anyone from the position group wants to hear used to describe their play on the field.
Essentially, it means that the success of someone like Cousins is mostly due to the coaching and offensive scheme that heโs being asked to run and less on the quarterbackโs actual skill-set.
Covers most qb’s except elite ones. Mahomies, Allen, Herbert come to mind.
Dude from bungals too.
This is a very stupid comment. Cousins has had a different OC every one of his seven years as a starter and produced tons of yards and tons of TD’s despite this. He’s anything BUT a system QB. He has had to produce regardless of his terrible O-line, and not running the same offense two years in a row at any time in his career. Compare that to Tom Brady who has never in his career played behind a bad O-line and had three OC’s in 20 years with the Patriots.
He deserves better line play, think he gets it this year. Fingers crossed.
Agreeโฆyou donโt produce the numbers Kirk does and be a qb relying on coaches and schemeโs to be effective. Thats just a doomer making up his own hater twist on an individual player in a team game.
Kirk was 7-1 last year on 4th qtr comebackโs.
Vikings defense was 0-8 on holding 4th qtr leads.
You tell me Kirkโs not talented producing like that in that team situation Iโll tell you either you have a set bias on said player or youโre a fucking ignorant idiot when it comes to football.
Blanket criticism, not sure where that comes from.
10 years of listening to doomers spew their BS. Thats where.
Since 2018 Cousins is 5th in the league in passing TD production in an offense built around the RB and really if Zim had his way he’d run the ball every damn play. Most TD’s in a four year span in Vikings history, and 5th most in the league over the past four years.
Correctโฆ
Zimmer actually increased the pressure on his QB to be a Mahomes / Wilson style QB when he isnโt by keeping everything so defense bend donโt break / run the ball conservative it was clear he didnโt understand his offenseโs strengths weaknesses or didnโt give a shit. So glad he was sent packing. KOC wonโt play it that way.
100%, he sux. 3m gets you the same
Minion? Wow…
case
Pay him 6-7 mil? Thought you wanted to lose? Pay a PS nothing then.
skols, take Tampa today
I did already. No way they lose three in a row
Stupid lightening. Overhyped
Wow what a clutch goal letโs gooo
lol, don’t panic grasshopper
Kane is a dirty POS, gonna fight him myself. Avs roll though!
Lolโฆsure you will.
Thought he’d do something, been watching series. Kadril 2nd line center? Who’s taking his place? Line juggling? Think i read he hurt his hand. Not sure, always upper/lower body crap.

Trying to get the tweet image to show but itโs only doing the text. This was the copy link.
This is the embedded link
So there may be some setting for images or something. Thanks, Iโll keep adjusting shit until it works.
catch anything or do you need some tips from me?
Caught a bunch, was out at a small lake so kiddo could have fun. Caught a dozen bluegill & a few rainbow trout.
nice, gills good to eat
For sure. It was a perfect night, too. No wind & warm, clear skies so a bit chilly overnight, but not too bad.
Sunset
Nice
Holy smokes the hide function is working on mobile.
Nice, this place keeps getting better and better.
My evening
Canโt beat that.
Wish I was fishing
That is nice!
5 Avs at -130 tonight or no?
Want Avs to win but think Oil cover puck line.
Probably gonna take avs at +1.5 and parlay it with over at 4.5. Probably be around -150ish
Oil desperate, i’d hate to bet on this game. May come down to goalie and PP.
Nothing big. Got in at -190 for +1.5 avs and over 4.5 total goals.
Might take avs ML now
Win win for Skolly ๐
Avs looking good, series is pretty much over.
sorry, missed this. hopefully you took it
Haha nice GF! Used my picture I loaded into the system. Was playing around with how to write an article the other day
It was there, so I used it. I have no shame.
Also, let me know if you need help posting articles. I can teach you what I know, which isnโt a ton.
Hotter than the hubs of hell out there today. Got my new drive belt on my mower and cut the grass that was higher than a Mendocino soy boi. Yard looks like Augusta. Played golf this am at sunrise. Beautiful morning, played like shit.
Playing a short tricky course tomorrow at 7 a.m. My specialty because I hit the ball very straight, especially with my irons but not very long. Last time I played there I shot 78.
Well done! Breaking 80 is not easy even on a shorter course. I am hopeful for a few sub 80 rounds this year. Worked a lot in the simulator over the winter and gained an extra club in distance across the board.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend folks!
High of 75 in the northern Dakota today. Down to 49 overnight, gonna get a bit chilly.
Gotta go get my hair cut etc… stay safe and have fun!
Looks like skolly, mick, feezey and many many others are out of luck now
Lol
Mini camp cut by a day.
My guess is because of injuries.
he’s out for year, many more the same soon and I win all my bets
Sad that you take such schadenfreude at any malady the Vikings endure.
Not at all, old team, bound to get injuries. All teams get them.
The Minnesota Vikings have the 3rd youngest team in the NFL (based on average age) and the 7th youngest team in the 4 major sports.
Go look at the starters on D….. they are young BECAUSE they have all their cap tied up in beaker, kendricks, Z, smith, thelen- all over 30.
You said the Vikings are old. I looked it up and they are the 3rd youngest team in the league. Then you spout this. Move the goal posts as usual. I like you Five but you somewhat routinely say things that are patently false.
Young generally means new guys and most suck. As chief said, young= bad. We will be much younger next year after getting rid of Smith and AT and maybe Cook
But as I said, we’re already the 3rd youngest team in the league, so getting younger isn’t a priority. Yes we have a couple players that are a little senior, but overall compared to the rest of the league we’re not old at all.
As to the comment that young = bad, I’m not real sure where that correlation comes from or if it’s based in any sort of fact.
starters are old as dirt
Lol, lies, damn lies and stats. Wait till we get to 53. Then again if 5-6 starters are on IR by then and we are starting practice squad, we could be young.
Young generally equates to bad, so…………….
Exactly, we’re going to suck
Predicting injuries and thus the quality of the team is illogical.
predicting anything in sports is illogical, I fully agree.
The head coach?
GF working hard on Saturday trying to make the site better. We’ll get there. At least we have a site where freedom rings!
freedom rings, or reigns? Asking for a friend.
Some people like rings.
Some like reins.
Twins AA team pound the rock, i’m shocked.
I hate technology
